Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Bowl with Hot Honey

This bowl is a fast, high-protein lunch that fits easily into flexible dieting macros without any sub-recipes or special equipment. Microwaved sweet potato gives you a soft, sweet base, ground turkey browned in one pan adds lean protein, and a scoop of cottage cheese boosts the protein even further. A drizzle of hot honey and some creamy avocado tie it all together with a sweet-spicy finish, and the whole thing comes together in about 15 minutes using one pan and a microwave.
